Chapter 126 Consuming Sunflower Seeds
Lu Hao left just like that, but he left Fang Ping, who was left there, with endless thoughts.
Logically, Fang Ping should be happy to have received Lu Hao's help, but Lu Hao's last words seemed to shatter Fang Ping's long-held expectations.
He couldn't help but wonder what exactly the underground cave was like that would make Lu Hao say such a thing.
Was I really wrong?
Lu Hao was unaware of Fang Ping's contemplation or his plans. Since he didn't need 500 credits anyway, he figured he might as well consider it a waste of money.
It would be a good thing if Fang Ping could enter the underground cave sooner. After all, it would allow him to realize the current plight of humanity and the ferocity of the cave dwellers, and also help him wake up to the fact that the most important thing for a martial artist is strength.
Everything else is irrelevant.
When they arrived at the logistics department, Old Li was still lying lazily on that recliner, showing no signs of being a master who could kill an eighth-rank expert with a single sword strike.
"Old Li, snap out of it!"
Lu Hao waved his hand in front of Li Changsheng's eyes.
"How dare you call me 'Old Li'?"
Li Changsheng stared wide-eyed at Lu Hao and said.
"Alright, alright, Teacher Li, is that alright? I'll exchange some items."
Lu Hao said with a smile.
If I could beat you now, I would have called you Old Li a long time ago, but it won't be long.
"I have a feeling you're thinking about something inappropriate."
"No, how could such a thing be? Alright, alright, I'm here to exchange something. Teacher Li, won't you open the door?"
"Open it, of course we'll open it. A few days ago, when Qin brought Wang Jinyang here, he spent nearly 20,000 credits."
They said you've earned more credits than them, so there probably won't be anything good here to empty your wallet.
Li Changsheng said with a smile, while bringing up the remaining items on the computer for Lu Hao to choose from.
"We can still empty the coffers, after all, there are so many good things here."
Lu Hao said while looking at the computer.
"Teacher Li, do you have any more Rank 6 leather armor pieces? The one we had last time got destroyed, but it was quite effective."
"Oh? You three encountered a Rank 6, and you even came back safely. You three are really brave." Li Changsheng only knew that the three of them made a fortune last time, but he naturally didn't know the specifics. However, now that Lu Hao said that even the Rank 6 peak leather armor was destroyed, they must have encountered a Rank 6.
"They didn't run away; the three of us killed them together."
Lu Hao said it casually, as if it were as simple and indifferent as deciding what to eat tomorrow.
"Huh? You killed a sixth-rank official? Really?" Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng could no longer maintain his composure and asked in surprise.
"Yes, it's just a low-level sixth rank, not worth mentioning."
Lu Hao said casually, "It really feels good to show off in front of knowledgeable people. No wonder so many people like to show off; it feels so good."
If I'm not mistaken, all three of you are fourth-rank, not even high-level fourth-rank, and you killed a sixth-rank.
"Is this still the world I know? Since when can a fourth-rank official kill a sixth-rank official?"
Li Changsheng looked on with a questioning expression. After all, he had seen many geniuses over the years, and he himself had once been a great prodigy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have earned the title of the Immortal Swordsman, but he had never seen such an outrageous record before.
He wasn't surprised that a fourth-rank official could defeat a fifth-rank official, since he had done it before. But a fourth-rank official defeating a sixth-rank official—was that something a human could achieve?
"Alright, let's not think about those little things. Does Teacher Li still have any leather armor left?"
Little things?
If this is considered a minor matter, then it's not a major matter.
"Yes, of course, a set of top-grade sixth-rank leather armor is 10,000 credits, no bargaining," Li Changsheng said, coming back to his senses.
"Okay, give me one, and also my B-grade greatsword. See how many credits I can get from it. I'm planning to upgrade my weapon."
After all, there is still a risk of breakage with a Grade 6 B alloy. Li Changsheng weighed the knife in his hand and offered a buyback price of 500 credits, which was not bad. After all, including Lu Hao's discount, he only spent 600 credits to get the Grade B ring knife before.
"Teacher Li will forge a large sword for me using Grade A alloy, based on the shape of this large ring-handled sword, and this time, he'll add extra weight."
I estimate it should be increased to 20 kilograms, so it will be easier to use; otherwise, it will be too light and uncomfortable to handle.
Lu Hao said that after reaching the fourth rank, his physical fitness had greatly improved, and he felt that the Great Ring Blade was already a bit too light during the previous battle.
"Okay, no problem. Grade A alloy is worth 200 credits per kilogram, so 20 kilograms would be 4000 credits. The forging fee is 100 credits."
It's not unreasonable, considering that Grade A alloys are difficult to melt. After your discount, it's 2870 credits. You can pick it up before going down to the underground cave.
"Alright, give me three more Life-Restoring Pills and five bottles of Grade Three Healing Pills."
"Hiss~ You're going to exchange for all the healing pills at Magic Martial Arts Academy? After you exchange them all, Magic Martial Arts Academy will have to restock."
"And surely we don't need that many Life-Returning Pills?" Li Changsheng gasped upon hearing the number of pills Lu Hao had announced.
"There's no other way, Teacher Li. You have to understand that I'm only a fourth-rank cultivator, and I'm fighting a sixth-rank cultivator. My internal organs will definitely suffer damage in the fight, so I have to rely on the Life-Recovering Pill."
Lu Hao said that, after all, without the essence of life, he could only rely on life-restoring pills, and whether he could survive would depend on fate.
"Alright, be careful. If your injury is too severe and damages your very core, even a life-saving pill won't save you. Besides, taking so many pills will produce a lot of pill poison." "It's okay, if it really comes to that, just survive first and then worry about the effects of the pill poison."
Lu Hao wasn't too concerned about the pill poison, since he could eliminate these impurities when he was forging his golden body at the eighth rank.
"Okay, three bottles of Life-Restoring Pills cost 6000 credits, and five bottles of Healing Pills cost 2500 credits, for a total of 5950 credits after the discount."
"Okay, then there's nothing else," Lu Hao said. After all, he really didn't lack anything, and there was no life essence here either.
"Okay, that's 18820 credits in total. I'll round it down to 18800," Li Changsheng said.
"Thank you so much, Professor Li. Oh, and by the way, Professor Li, please transfer another 500 credits to Fang Ping as an investment in him."
Lu Hao handed over his martial arts certificate and said.
"You've gotten into investing now. But Fang Ping is actually quite good; he's just a bit obsessed with making money these days."
"He'll realize his mistake after he goes down into the underground cave."
After all, Li Changsheng didn't know that Fang Ping's system grew by money. However, making money on the ground was too slow. In the underground cave, you could easily scoop up money, it was like carrying a sack of money.
After Fang Ping has been there once or twice, he will no longer care about these insignificant little businesses on the ground.
"That's true," Li Changsheng said.
After taking the leather armor and pills with him, Lu Hao returned to his dormitory. Once he saw that he had adjusted his condition, the next step was to break through his mental strength.
Back in the training room, Lu Hao took out the sunflower head, plucked all the sunflower seeds, and began to swallow them one by one.
Lu Hao could clearly feel his mental strength slowly increasing.
